ubiquitin-like (Ubl) domain found in ubiquitin-like domain-containing CTD phosphatase 1 (UBLCP1) and similar proteins
UBLCP1 is a 26S proteasome phosphatase that regulates nuclear proteasome activity. It is localized in the nucleus and it contains conserved ubiquitin-like (Ubl) domain with a beta-grasp Ubl fold, which directly interacts with the proteasome. Knockdown of UBLCP1 in cells promotes 26S proteasome assembly and selectively enhances nuclear proteasome activity. UBLCP1 may also play a role in the regulation of phosphorylation state of RNA polymerase II C-terminal domain, a key event during mRNA metabolism.
Feature 1: key conserved lysine K27, 1 residue position
Conserved feature residue pattern:[KR]
Evidence:
Comment:K27 (Ub numbering) is a lysine conserved in the Ubl_ubiquitin_like family; it is one of 7 lysines involved in chain linkage in ubiquitin (K6, K11, K27, K29, K33, K48, or K63, Ub numbering); may have other functions, for example for NEDD8 it is involved in the mechanism of protein neddylation
